I remember when Helena was waiting tables in Port Norfolk. Granny, Nana, Ivy and I would stop by for lunch so Helena could visit with Ivy. Ivy is Helena's daughter born March 4, 1999.

I am so sorry and disturbed by your lost. I pray that God will give family friends and loved ones comfort and peace. I will miss seeing Helena, when I stop in Wawa late nights to get something to eat after work. She had a super friendly, and genuine personality. God bless her soul.

What our families say...

In my opinion, there is no better facility in Virginia than Altmeyer Funeral Homes. Not only was Chris Sisler there to hold my hand every step of the way, his family members were holding the door on the day of the funeral to help and encourage me. I will never forget their grace. He led me and my family through the process as a personal friend and neighbor, and as the ultimate professional.
